USA Channel actually had some show I was able to get into. Already mentioned EXO SQUAD, and they also had this POWER RANGERS ripoff show with the same cheesy graphics and acting, but it had ALOT more thought put into it. Of course there was also DUCKMAN that I watched as a kid, I liked it cause it seemed "edgy" at the time, and some of the episodes were hella funny.

And I DEFY anyone to say they didnt watch this show:

Anyone remember the original Johny Quest cartoons? I loved those, or that strange one with the rock ape and flubber thing and rhino that shot rocks or something.

Anyways...

Are you afraid of the dark? :
Zeke the Plumber seriously gave me nightmares

RoundHouse:
The skits were ok, but the dancing was mad niggerish

All That:
The SNL of kids

My Brother and Me:
I was never a fan of this show because it was all black people and when you're a kid (or a racist southener) it actually turned you off.

Rocco's Modern Life:
Pure ownage

Eeeek! The Cat:
The episode where he was accidently sent to Hell (i think they called it heck) and had to clean the worlds biggest kitty litter box was good stuff.

Duck Tales:
I got drunk one night up at school and came home at 4:00am and ended up watching a Duck Tales Marathon on the disney channel .... best time of my life.

I still remember that they had an episode on JFK's coconut (the one used as a rescue message to save the PT 109s crew); and they had a bunch of WWII questions in the question round biggrin:
